? Release Notes For Version 10.33

Date Selection Calendar

The week numbers shown on the general date selection calendar now reflect the value of the 'WEEK_BASIS' control setting.

Sales Order History

The 'Sales Order History' screen has been replaced with a new design which makes it easier to view the changes made to the call-offs on the order.
Purchase Order Default Buyer

The 'PO_DEFAULT_BUYER' control flag has been added to allow a default buyer (user name) to be defined on a supplier.

When a new purchase order is raised the 'buyer' of that purchase order will be set as the default for that supplier instead of the user raising the purchase order.

Purchase Order Status

A purchase order line can now be assigned a status to describe the confirmation level of the purchase order item.

The available options are 'Agreed', 'Firm Urgent', 'Firm', 'Material' and 'Forecast'.

An option has also been added to the MRP to automatically clear down contract purchase orders that contain items which have the 'material' or 'forecast' status.

New Shelf Life Options

New options have been created to control the colour coding of the expiry dates of stock batches. Different thresholds can now be set by part number - rather than just globally as previously.

Bulk Loads

Various new options have been added to the 'Bulk Load' screens - including new sort orders and column options.

Drag & Drop Schedule BETA

A beta version of a facility to allow items in a schedule to be manipulated via a drag & drop interface has been added.  This is only available to users of the SQL schedule.

Please contact support if you would like to be a part of the beta program to run this option and provide valuable feedback on how we develop this new facility.

Auto Raise Purchase Orders

A new option has been added to 'auto raise purchase orders' that will prevent the 'suggested' order date from being earlier than 'today' + 'lead time'.

The 'AUTO_ORDER_NONE_BEFORE_LEAD' control setting is required to be enabled in order to activate this facility.

Authorisation Screen Restrict by Team or Department

The 'RESTRICT_EMP_AUTH_SCREEN' control setting has been added to allow users to specify that the authorisation screen is restricted by either team or department.

Full users are exempt from the restriction and are required to allocate to each user the teams or departments they are authorised to view.

CRM Email Campaigns

A new button has been added to the 'CRM Maintenance' screen to allow email campaigns to be created. This option is only available to customers who have purchased the CRM Module of FactoryMaster.
